x0 Introduction
In this paper we apply techniques arising from Iwasawa theory to study the Galois
module structure of principal homogeneous spaces constructed via points of infinite
order on CM elliptic curves defined over a number field. This theory was introduced
by M.J. Taylor in [T1] (see also [ST], [CN­S] and [CN­T]) and is motivated by the
fact that such principal homogeneous spaces are very closely connected with certain
rings of integers.
